Good morning.
My name is Joe Cheechoo and I am the Clinical Team Leader of the Operating Room Suite here at Weeneebayko General Hospital in Moose Factory, Ontario.
My question today is:
What is the recommended time frame to train a general duty nurse to circulate, scrub and work in the PACU?
I would appreciate receiving some guidelines with which we can use to provide safe perioperative nursing care to the population that we serve.
Thank you kindly for your assistance.

The orientation period is 16 weeks. This is a competency based orientation (checklist used). All staff have completed the OR certificate.
We do not cross train staff to PACU however.
